I wouldn't bet my life on it, but I would assume that most successful electronic musicians, idm and otherwise, make most of their money playing live, touring and whatnot. Most people who run or help run a label (Funkst?rung, Ae, Phoenecia, RDJ) and have money to fund it are usually people who play live regularly. That's pretty apparent. Besides, I wouldn't bet that Funkst?rung got paid for all the tracks they remixed. I would guess some of the tracks were maybe just remixed for fun (WuTang?), and they ended up having to pay a small royalty to the respective artists. I don't know that for sure though.
